The project for the construction of a wind farm in the territory
complex of protective structures
St. Petersburg from floods
WES Damba
Location
The project envisages the construction of a 125 MW wind farm (estimated capacity) along the complex of protective structures (KZS) – on the Neva side, on the coast of the Gorskaya site and in the western part of Kotlin Island.
Estimation of the VED performed on the basis of full-scale measurements shows a high potential (up to 550 W / m2 at an altitude of 80 m) near the KZS.
Financial indicators of the project
Due to the presence of a complex of factors influencing the sale of electricity from the WES Damba, it is intended to consider both models for the sale of electricity for each complex and for the whole project – both wholesale and retail, making a decision on the model at the stage of the investment portfolio formation.
